Why The Great Flip?

Why The Great Flip  (TGF)? My daughter created the name “The Great Flip.” She said learning Brazilian jiu-jitsu (BJJ) will turn a girl’s self-defense game upside down! BJJ empowers girls with techniques so that a smaller, weaker person can overcome a larger opponent. TGF allows girls to feel empowered, confident and brave learning a new life skill like self-defense. But there is so much more …

The Great Exchange

But most important, when a girl reads the words “The Great Flip,” she will learn that Jesus turned the world upside down for her. The Great Flip is about The Gospel!

Martin Luther, the great reformer, summarized the Christian faith using the Bible verse from the New Testament in 2 Corinthians 5:21:

“For our sake he made him to be sin who knew no sin, so that in him we might become the righteousness of God.” 2 Corinthians 5:21

He called it The Great Exchange. I call it The Great Flip.

Flipped by Grace

I want girls to not only learn an effective martial art, but I want girls to have a safe place to find encouragement and motivation. The gospel of Jesus Christ is all about grace; the free and unmerited favor of God.

Here at The Great Flip, girls will receive unconditional love and acceptance, no matter her past, present and future. I want girls to grow in grace with herself, with others and discover the unconditional message of God’s grace for every person, every where.

If you are not a Christian, I encourage you to meet me on the mat and continue your self-defense journey. Everyone is welcome. Consider the spiritual content something to meditate and reflect upon while you learn a new life skill.

Stay with me and I’ll peel back the worldview and give you a glimpse of God’s view through the lens of grace. As part of your subscription to The Great Flip, you’ll have unlimited access to all the self defense videos, and in addition, you’ll gain access to subscriber-only content and resources which digs deep into grace. I have many amazing Christian friends who will be sharing their expertise in grace-filled living, prayer, mission and so much more.

Grace is everywhere to be discovered!

Did you read my post about MTV Generational Award Winner, Chris Pratt? He’s the movie star in Marvel Movie “Guardians of the Galaxy” and movie thriller Jurassic Park. He shares his take on grace in the least likely place. Check it out https://thegreatflip.com/marvel-ous-grace/

Are you familiar with Christian Singer Lauren Daigle? Her journey to stardom is a living testimony, but some Christians have been critical about her success. I wrote a response “gracefully” to her critics. Check it out at this link.

I’d like to share your stories and life lessons as you’ve been touched by grace.  Send me a note through the Contact form or follow me on social media on Instagram https://www.instagram.com/thegreatflip/
